Jacob Heacock

A native of Grove City, Ohio, Jacob Heacock first found his voice through musical theatre before turning to opera and song. He earned a Bachelor of Music in Voice Performance from The Ohio State University and a Master of Music in Voice Performance and Pedagogy from the Peabody Institute of The Johns Hopkins University. He has appeared as a Festival Artist at the Tanglewood Music Center, as a soloist with the Mendelssohn Kammerorchester Leipzig, and as Angie the Ox/Joey Biltmore in Opera Saratoga’s production of Guys and Dolls.
